Eyes of the World

The Grateful Dead recorded live on August 29, 1983 in the Hult Center (a 2,500 seat venue).
whoa. this show is pretty good, but go ahead and click the player forward to this night's Eyes. Then tell me your toe didn't want to start tapping...

Good show, but not my favorite style of Dead. The 80's were their disco/techno influenced years, which is really evident in the China Cat Sunflower/I Know You Rider jam in this show. From the speed of all the songs I would guess they did more than a line or two backstage before this show...

Some folks measure Dead shows based upon the Dark Star. A telling jam for me is what the band does with I Know You Rider. What songs they connect it to, whether they do it simple, country, jazz, or rockin.
